I can understand, sinking your own cash into it at this stage can seem futile. However, there are many more coins and new companies start up their own for crowdfunding etc.
What I propose here is a few sites called faucets. Faucets collect all of the micro numbers at the end of a transaction, comple them and give them away for visiting their sites. Forewarning, they are spammy ad sites, but I assure you, you can still do your business there.
Ok, here is how to get your free cryptocurrencies and start building your wallets.
First, setup a coinpot micro-wallet here:
This is where all your funds will automatically be deposited from the sites that I will list. You can also transfer funds out of this account free of charge (exept BTC ircc). For instance, I feed mine to Eobot (more on that later). Once registered you can input your coinpot address to these sites:
http://moondoge.co.in/?ref=bd71e343fa30 3-5 mins cooldown
http://moonbit.co.in/?ref=79dac4eb0e73 3-5 mins cooldown
http://moonliteco.in/?ref=12cdccd8ee93 3-5 mins cooldown
http://bonusbitcoin.co/?ref=A4E4BDA4F539 15 mins cooldown
http://freedoge.co.in/?r=1282970 1 hour cooldown
https://bitfun.co/games3-5 mins cooldown
https://www.instant-doge.eu/en/ref-sshyQUDtPwy 3-5 min cooldown and annyong popups. Fair warning.
For the first 3, you can claim about every 5 minutes. I find that around 20 minutes is the sweet spot. However, try to do them daily as you get a percentage bonus per day! Doesn't apply to Bitfun.
There you go, you can start building your cryptocurrency for free.
Now, Should you want to take it a step further, visit this site:
http://www.eobot.com
This is a cloud mining site. From your coinpot wallet, you can exchange each of the three above coins into one (I use Doge). Freely transfer it out to your eobot account and use those funds to buy 24 hour mining time for any coin they have including Bitcoin!
I Mine doge as well. It's fast and the turnovers are doing very well.
Now, this will not make you rich but it will provide profit.
Happy to discuss any questions you may have but all the sites have good documentation on how to operate within them.
